Hey folks, I'm having a tough time getting Microsoft Teams set up on my Terminal Server running Windows Server 2025. The usual installation method isn't supported anymore, and I haven't had any luck with the new best practice guidelines either. I've tried several things like installing the Wireless Networking service, Webview2, Visual C++ runtime, using teamsbootstrapper.exe to install Teams, setting up FSLogix, and even a registry fix. However, every time I attempt to run it, I get an error: 'Invalid parameter' for the file located at FilesWindowsAppsMSTeams_26032.208.4399.5_x64_8wekyb3d8bbwems-teams.exe. I'd really appreciate any suggestions you might have!

Are you using the Machine Wide Installer (MSI) for installation? That's how we set up Teams on our Server 2022 RDS hosts without issues, including on clustered setups with FSLogix. Check this guide for more details on using the MSI installer.
Installing Teams is actually pretty straightforward. Here's a link that details how to do a bulk install if you're interested: [Microsoft Teams Bulk Install Guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-client-bulk-install#option-1a-download-and-install-teams-for-a-single-computer).
Yes, I tried teamsbootstrapper.exe, but I also learned you need the MSIx installer for that.
